Desperate Help Needed - Noah

[NoahsMommy]

Kelly - stop worrying about your brother, your parents, your grandma and start concentrating on you!!!!

No wonder you get so sick. That is such a toxic family that you should do what your brother did and get out and cut off all communications.

You both are 100% correct. I KNEW I'd start "feeling bad" getting close to move date, and I knew I'd need you all to remind me WHY I'm getting the H*LL out of there.

Thank you!!

P.S. I called Balcom this morning and left a message to please leave the balance on my voicemail if I'm unable to pick up my phone when they call. So at least I can give you a balance update on Noah James. YAY! I also told them I'm coming to pick him on/around 2/2 and needed to see if that is an "OK" day for pickup. (They have certain days you can drop off and pick up. I think Saturday is OK for pickup, but don't want any surprises!

Kelly,

I am so proud of you, honey. You've come so very far. I think being away from such toxicity is going to be just what the doctor ordered.

You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

Its only natural - when you leave somewhere or someone you tend to only remember the goods bits but if you ever doubt you are doing the right thing picture yourself still living there this time next year reading back on this thread...........

You are so right, thank you!! (((Hugs)))

Noah Uppydate:

OK, a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE THANK YOU to all my PT Family who helped get Noah's balance to a manageable size...and to all those that are constantly here for me and my kitties...Thank you all so very much!!! For everything!!

Noah's balance when I pick him up will be $260.00 on Saturday 2/2 between 2:00 and 4:00 pm! You guys are so amazing....I mean, there truly was no other place for my Noah. For those that had the uh, pleasure (??) of meeting Mr. Noah Nawtee Cat, know that there is no way I could have inflicted him on anyone. Of course he picks NOW to finally come around. Silly boy! But that'll work in our favor with Kristin and he needs to be nice to her, especially! So, I guess it all worked out, right??

I cannot, will not be able to convey how much I love you guys, how much you've done for me and my kitties. The support alone, that you knew I was doing the right thing - when everyone else (nearly) in my life thought I was CRAZY! to keep my kitties, no matter what it took. I KNEW I'd be at this point...and I'm almost there.

OK, I probably should get something done at work.

Hugs, Love & Gratitude FOREVER,
Kelly & Noah

Kelly the reason you are feeling bad nearer your shift, is because you are such a loving person, that even after everything your family has put you through ,you still have compassion,something they seem truely lacking in.

I am so excited for you,please try and find that inner peace and harmony within yourself, and DONOT by any means feel even the smallest amount of guilt about leaving, you are not being ungrateful,you know they are the ones missing out in life,they should consider themselves honoured to have such a wonderful daughter,why on earth they cannot see it is beyond me.

You take much care now, and relax sweetie, times ahead are going to be good.

You can do it Kelly! Keep focused on YOU! You and your kitties are what matter.

Thank you all so very much!!! For everything!!

That's what "family" is for

Kelly, please remember that you are not alone in this situation. We are hear to listen and provide support for both you and Noah.

I would also like to tell you that you are not the only person who has been in this situation. When I was arranging to immigrate countries, I was living 500 miles from my parents but I did not tell anyone in my family that I was planning on immigrating until about 1 month before I left. By then I had all the paperwork in order and the movers booked, so they could say anything they wanted but it was too late to do anything about it. I realize you situation is different because you still live at home, but sometimes you have to do these things for your own peace and happiness (and sanity).

My Family...

I'm experiencing a TON of warriness. I'm so scared to tell my parents. I know that they'll be so upset no matter what I say or do. Even though they've done a bunch of not nice things, I know that from deep down, THEY feel its from wanting the best for me. I know that in my heart. The problem is, I DO care. I wish I could just turn it off. I don't ever want to hurt anyone, regardless of if they hurt me first.

Will you all please pray extra hard for me? That I know what to say and when to say it? If I'm led to "say" anything at all...or if God wants me to leave them a letter and go quiety. Whatever He wants me to do, whatever is RIGHT, I want to do it. I'll live through the harsh, meanness I'm most certainly going to recieve. I just want to do what will inflict the least amount of damage.

You are all so wonderful. Thank you all, for just being there for me. Having you here is just, priceless...(((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))

Love, Kelly

P.S. Update: due to the bad rains, storms, flooding here, my parents cancelled their day trip for tomorrow. Darn it! But, Kevin and Krista are going to help me get/move the stuff out of storage and into the apt on Sunday.
